Work parties will normally be on the fourth Saturday of the month. There are occasional special work parties to accommodate groups wishing to volunteer. Contact Deirdre McCrary (below) if you'd like to be added to our e-mail list for notification of when work parties will occur. Or watch this site for announcements. Gloves and tools provided. Scheduled Work Parties January 28 - 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. - for planting, clearing and mulching Meet at the Spring Street entrance.  People of all ages, talents, and backgrounds volunteer to restore Madrona Woods. Friendly, experienced workers are happy to share their knowledge and discoveries with new volunteers, and working in the woods is an effective way to learn about plants and ecosystems.
 If you can't distinguish Oregon grape from holly, an hour in Madrona Woods will teach you the difference, as well as provide you with the satisfaction of helping to make a community resource healthier, safer, and more beautiful. If you can't pull, dig, clip, or saw, the work-party crew welcomes other kinds of help: provide a snack ; donate native plants to replace invasives in the woods; sharpen our clippers, wash our gloves, or organize our toolbox. We can also use someone to carry a clipboard when we're planting to record what and where we plant for future monitoring.To volunteer, contact Deirdre McCrary at (206) 325-9035 or use our Contact Page.
